This is a prefect covered dish to use to spruce up that Sunday dinner! The factory artist has painted bright orange, pastel pink and blue flowers on brown branches with green leaves around the rim of the lid and the upper portion of the base. He has added geometric Greek key like designs along the edge of the flowers. He has added gold to the rims and handles of the lid and base. There are no chips; manufacturing anomalies do exist, the occasional tiny iron speck, dust 'bump' in the glaze, etc.
